I'm Tamara Gonzales. I will be joining you here on the blog as part of this exciting, never-ending, on-line event called CrochetSoiree.com, where the art of crochet is celebrated everyday! I will be blogging daily and available to talk with you, to show you some of the projects that I’m working on, and to share my love for crochet. As you get to know me, you will soon discover that I love to embellish with crochet and will crochet on just about anything. (If I can poke a hole in it, I will crochet around it.) If you would like to see some of the things that I like to embellish, please watch my video. I hope I can inspire you, and I know you will inspire me, so please sign up to become a member today and make sure you tell all your friends and family about CrochetSoiree.com.

Take time to browse the website and look at all of the fun things that are available to you here at Crochet Soiree. You can get involved with our community by sharing comments about crochet (or anything else that strikes your fancy), show off the projects you're creating and find out what other folks are working on, trade info and tips, explore the most basic or the latest techniques, meet new people, and connect with old friends. (We'll be covering all of the latest scoop on crochet guilds, charity projects, and yarn shops.) Besides the blog, there will be webcasts, interviews, and polls, just to name some of the great stuff we've got going on. You can get to know the designers and….

Can we talk about shopping? There is a store right here filled with all things crochet, and thanks to advanced search options, you'll be able to find what you are looking for in record time.

And I will be here waiting to hear from each and every one of you! I just can’t wait to see what projects you are working on. Send me pictures, and I will share them with the crochet world. Come join our community, and let's get this party started!
